Amos 6:1-6 and Isaiah 5:11-13

Fey,
as part of a wider claim of Isaiah's dependence on Amos, discusses,
in his opening chapter, this passage in relation to Is 5:11-13.
(For a presentation and critique of this proposal in English see
Davies especially
36-38.)

Whether Isaiah was aware of Amos' oracle or not, these passages
throw light on each other and on the society to which they speak.
